Chapter 2373: Chapter 825: Venting One’s Anger!
Yuanyang Observatory.
Accompanied by Xuan Yan True Person and the other four True Persons of Yuanyang Observatory, Zhou Chun quickly re-entered the mountain gate of this Human Clan’s Holy Land Sect.
They proceeded forward and soon reached the entrance of Yuanyang Venerable’s cave dwelling.
This place is now sealed by a separate formation prohibition, and coupled with the special materials used for the cave’s door and walls, Zhou Chun’s powerful divine sense could not penetrate to see inside.
However, with the powerful perception of a Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator, he could faintly sense that there was indeed a strong power of fire element Great Dao Law within.
Deity Transformation Stage Cultivators can hide their true cultivation level in front of those with a lower cultivation realm.
But when two Deity Transformation Stage Cultivators meet, even if one is at the Divine Transformation Late Stage and the other only at the Divine Transformation Early Stage, the former is hard-pressed to conceal their true cultivation level from the latter.
Because the power of Great Dao Laws changes the postnatal Taoist Body, making concealment difficult.
The rich power of Great Dao Laws on a Divine Transformation Late Stage cultivator is hard to hide.
Now Zhou Chun senses strong power of fire element Great Dao Law in the cave ahead, suggesting in some respects that Yuanyang Venerable might still be alive and right inside the cave dwelling!
However, Zhou Chun also knows that aside from Deity Transformation Stage Cultivators being able to release the power of fire element Great Dao Law, some Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasures or even postnatal rare treasures can achieve this.
Let’s not forget, Yuanyang Venerable possesses a Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasure [Samadhi True Flame Gourd], which can mobilize the power of fire element Great Dao Law!
So solely relying on the presence of fire element Great Dao Law cannot conclusively determine whether Yuanyang Venerable is still alive.
He gazed at Yuanyang Venerable’s cave dwelling, pondered for a moment, then turned his eyes to Xuan Yan True Person and said, "Taoist Friend Xuan Yan, as far as Mr. Zhou knows, Taoist Friend Yuanyang’s lifespan should have reached its limit decades ago, could it be he found some longevity-extending secret treasure?"
Upon speaking, Xuan Yan True Person’s face drastically changed as he blurted out, "Absolutely not! The sect’s ancestor is in the prime of life, with no worries about lifespan!"
Then he hastily apologized to Zhou Chun, saying, "Senior Chunjun, I beg your pardon, I was momentarily agitated with no intention to offend senior, but this concerns the ancestor’s reputation, I must clarify this!"
"Hmm, I understand, I understand, Taoist Friend Xuan Yan, there’s no need to be agitated, Mr. Zhou understands everything!"
Zhou Chun nodded lightly, smiling in response.
Then, as if casually, he said, "By the way, Mr. Zhou heard that the Moon Wheel Sect’s [Exterminating Moon Wheel] is now offered at Yuanyang Observatory, could you lead Mr. Zhou to see it? Mr. Zhou has long heard of its fame, but unfortunately, never had the chance to see it!"
Upon these words, Xuan Yan True Person and some True Persons of Yuanyang Observatory’s faces slightly changed, uncertain how to respond.
After exchanging glances, Xuan Yan True Person braced himself and said, "Senior Chunjun, I beg your pardon, that [Exterminating Moon Wheel] was given to the ancestor by fellow disciple Cangyue of the Moon Wheel Sect, and it’s been kept by the ancestor. We really don’t mean to make things difficult for senior, but we truly can’t help senior!"
"I can understand that!"
Zhou Chun glanced at the True Persons of Yuanyang Observatory, smiled, and nodded.
Just when they thought they had narrowly passed this ordeal, Zhou Chun spoke again, "There is another matter, my dao companion True Person Qing Ni’s cultivation remains at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, now I want to support her in advancing to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, I wonder if your sect still has the [Pure Yang Barrier-Breaking Pill]? I am willing to pay a high price to acquire one for her!"
Upon finishing, he looked toward Xuan Yan True Person.
Facing Zhou Chun’s gaze, Xuan Yan True Person’s face turned extremely ugly, with an expression full of bitterness.
They say things come in threes; today Zhou Chun has already asked about three matters, and their previous answers evidently did not satisfy him, only he didn’t pursue it.
If they refuse this time, then it would truly be ungracious!
Xuan Yan True Person is unsure if this final matter was Zhou Chun’s real purpose for coming to Yuanyang Observatory.
But he knew that refusing now would have unpredictable consequences!
While he indeed has a [Pure Yang Barrier-Breaking Pill] left, it was part of the foundation left by Yuanyang Venerable, ensuring that after he enters seclusion and passes away, Yuanyang Observatory can have another Great Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator to succeed him.
If they exchange this [Pure Yang Barrier-Breaking Pill] with Zhou Chun, what would Yuanyang Observatory use in the future to cultivate another Great Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator?
So Xuan Yan True Person is now caught in a dilemma, utterly unsure how to respond to Zhou Chun.
"What’s the matter? This makes Taoist Friend Xuan Yan very troubled? Or is the [Pure Yang Barrier-Breaking Pill] not in Taoist Friend Xuan Yan’s hands, but in Taoist Friend Yuanyang’s?"
Zhou Chun waited for a while, seeing Xuan Yan True Person’s prolonged silence, he furrowed his brows and spoke again.
Upon these words, Xuan Yan True Person immediately realized he couldn’t continue being silent.
He first swept his gaze around his fellow disciples, but saw their eyes flickering, not daring to meet his.
Seeing this situation, he chose to spill the beans, bowing to Zhou Chun and said, "Senior Chunjun, to be frank, while this junior indeed has one [Pure Yang Barrier-Breaking Pill] left, this item was entrusted to this junior by the ancestor before entering seclusion, and this junior actually has no right to dispose of it. To dispose of this item, either the ancestor must consent, or all elders must agree unanimously!"
